Good afternoon lads. 

Let's get to it. I think there's a ton of stuff I need to cover up.

First, game. A lot of progress has been made within just a week has been made. I have also just realized how undone I have left the drawings for a few of my monsters. However, considering the possible demo I am planning to make, I at least want to integrate the use of skills and potions within your character, and to also balance your skill levels and skill points.

But, the best way I can illustrate this is with this image:

So, now you have a new Staer that'll help you with managing your stats and just stay in there.

His name is Swool. And yes, that is a towel wrapped around his... I don't want to say neck, but it's around his head.

But now, in the lore canon, it is confirmed for the following friend pairs:
-Heat and Staerie
-Cold and Swool
-Glotch and Gaze

I have been committed to attempting to expand on their lore and knowledge of their personalities and their history. It's pretty hard. I'll say that much. It's pretty harsh to what I'm giving to them. I guess there's no other way to continue, especially considering just how similar they are to my own counterpart of my personality. 

Did I just self-diagnose myself with a split personality now... Oh god, what have I done?

Anyways, besides the extreme heat in this world under almost 100 degrees, almost just as similar as how I feel with any other deadline. 

Yes, I'm actually just going to commit as much as I can to end this demo project for submission as a mini portfolio. 

Otherwise, I will continue to attempt to integrate skills into this game, which I believe will be my most difficult skill. Perhaps aside from smaller nuisances, such as writing a large amount of stuff for my own characters or doing animations/particles.

I still have YET to include any music, just from my lack of music making. That... probably will take the most time.

Speaking of enemies. I haven't finished it, but this is one of my concept arts that I've been planning with...

Well, anyway. If you can recognize what this man was originally inspired by, be my guest and take your guesses below.

Annnd I think that should be it.

I'll continue to integrate skills into my game as I continue to progress... Buuuuuuuut, I've got some neeeews.

Game Jam. 25th-30th. We're gonna have a lot of fun during this week without much work. Time to focus on the game I suppose. On both of them.

How fun.

YouTube supports more content-related issues, such as sneak peeks and trailers. Hope you find those interesting. I'll plan to have a Discord soon. Not sure when, but soon.

That being said, I'm glad if you read this far, and wish me more luck with my programming skills and game development skills even more. Gooood bye!
